gflush - forces all unsent commands down the network to the Geometry Pipeline

SPECIFICATION

C
gflush()

FORTRAN
subroutine gflush

Pascal
procedure gflush;

DESCRIPTION

Most graphics commands are buffered at the host by the communication software for efficient block transfer of data from the host to the IRIS.  gflush delivers all buffered yet untransmitted graphics data to the IRIS.  Certain graphics commands (notably those which return values) flush the host buffer when they are executed.  gflush is only used on an IRIS Terminal.

NOTE

This command can be used only in immediate mode.
